Although Strobing is a makeup technique that has been a big trend for the past year, there are many people that still haven't tried it. If you haven't tried strobing, it's time for you to try something new! In this video, I show you how to get a gorgeous glow that will make you look like a golden goddess in all of your pictures. You can strobe with any look whether it's your natural every day look or your bold night out look. The four products that I used to achieve this glow will be linked below. Hope you enjoy!

Hey guys! I know it's been a minute since I posted a makeup video, so I decided to do a tutorial using Complexion Rescue by Bare Minerals. Ever since I tried this Tinted Moisturizer Gel Cream, I have been in love with it! It is my go-to product for a nice natural look with a Dewy finish and I use it just about every day. Although it is a sheer-to-medium coverage, I love it because it's packed with minerals, it hydrates the skin, it evens out your skin tone and it doesn't clog your pores. Another benefit is that it feels like you have nothing on. Complexion Rescue is perfect for 'makeup beginners' or for anyone that doesn't want or need the full coverage of a foundation.  Check this video out to see how I achieve my every day look using this product.

Happy Valentine's Day you guys!! Today, I just wanted to post a story time video where I tell you about a past Valentine's Day experience just to give you all a little V-Day laugh. I also give a little talk at the end discussing the day and my personal opinion on it. I hope you all enjoy!

Hey guys! With this being my first post of 2016, I want to start off by telling you all that I hope your New Year is going well and that you are making the most out of every minute. It's only the beginning of February and this year seems like it will be a great one for me. I have so many goals that I want to accomplish this year and I pray that God continues to bring me closer each day.

Last year, a major goal of mines was to graduate from college. Getting a college diploma has always been a big deal to me because it was something that no one in my family had done. Receiving a college degree was important to me because I wanted to break the cycle and prove to my family that it's possible for us to do this.
​
On May 15th, 2015, I graduated from Louisiana State University and I have to admit that it is a day that I will never forget! I was so grateful to have the support from all of my family and close friends and I wanted to make a video to showcase that. I am also thankful for the experience that I received while I was at LSU and all the unforgettable people that I met. I am so blessed for all of my college memories and friends (even if they aren't in this video), because those very things and people helped to mold me into the woman that I am today, along with my friends and family that have been there since day one. I hope that you all enjoy the video and thank you for continuing to support me.

Back when I started my blog, 3 years ago to be exact, I would have never imagined that I would get to this point. In no way was I pessimistic, but it just started off as a idea that I wanted to experiment with. Now, I'm truly amazed by the fact that my idea to start a fashion/lifestyle blog became a reality that emerged from a hobby to a lifestyle. I've watched myself evolve as a blogger by upgrading my equipment, content quality, & editing skills over the years and I feel like things are only going to get better as time continues on. Last year, I made a little over 22,500 views and I set a goal to make 24,000 views (2,000 views a month) for 2015. In total, I received over 62,800 views this year which is over double my goal and almost triple of what I made the year prior. This wouldn't have been possible without you all! I am so blessed to have so many supporters that constantly check out my blog, even when I slack up on posting new videos. It's so much content out on the internet and the fact that you came here to my blog means so much to me.
I pray that in 2016, I can make my blog much better and improve on uploading new post more frequently. I also hope that I can continue to entertain, educate, and empower my viewers with my content. Once again, thank you for helping me make my idea a reality.

Hey you guys! First off, I just want to say thank you! Thank you for visiting the site today and also I want to thank everyone that's been keeping up with the site, even when I don't post. I know that it's been a while since I did a lookbook but I felt like I had to get one out to give you all for some Fall Inspiration. I got a couple new pieces and I wanted to mix them with some pieces that I already had in my closet. This goes to show you that you don't always have to buy a completely new wardrobe to change it up a bit. Just find some pieces that stand out to you and figure out a way to incorporate it with what you already have. The outfit details will be listed below.  I hope you all enjoy this video and be on the look out because I also want to do a lookbook on how to wear a fur vest. Later!

Hey guys! I am so excited because I finally got myself a new computer which means... MORE POSTS & VIDEOS! But until I start posting new videos, I want to catch you all up on some videos that I've already filmed. I filmed this video a few months ago and I finally got around to editing it yesterday. In this video, I show you all my graduation gifts, things that I brought & I also discuss my Graduation Vlog that I plan to edit and post soon. I hope you all enjoy and be on the look out for more videos. :)

Hey everyone! I know it's been a while since I made a post, but I'm back!! Everything has been so crazy since I've graduated! The reason for the delay was because I have been receiving a 'warm' welcome into the REAL world & the reality of life after college (Moving, Work, Bills, & Lack of Free Time). I plan to make a video talking about all of those things, but for right now, I want to give you all advice on How To Survive College. Now I know that some of you may already be in college, have graduated, or didn't attend college, and if that's the case, pass it on to someone that you think it will help. It doesn't matter if they are a freshman, senior or even still in high school preparing for college, this may help them. How To Survive College will be a 3-part series of Real Talk videos to help students survive Academically, Socially & Personally. In this Intro. video, I tell 4 important websites to help you while in college. This is before I give more really good college advice in Part 2. Make sure you watch and share.  Also, stay tuned for the other parts because they will be coming soon.
